A position estimation algorithm and signal model for near range harmonic radar
Florian Bischeltsrieder, Wolfgang Utschick, Technische Universität München · 2025
In this thesis, the problem of detecting and localizing unknown targets composed of electronic circuit components using harmonic radar is investigated. To this end, a signal model based on the Volterra series, which describes the nonlinear and frequency-dependent transfer behavior of the observed targets, is being proposed. Furthermore, a position estimation algorithm based on conditional maximum likelihood estimation and the block orthogonal matching pursuit techniques is developed.
